This reduction can be credited to a new, stricter shoplifting law and a publicity campaign by the merchants, he added. The publicity campaign conducted by merchants included speeches to school groups and media advertising. The largest group of shoplifters tend to be juveniles, Hansen said, so school assembly speeches were an important part of the campaign. Hansen said no studies have measured awareness of the law in the juvenile population or among arrested shoplifters. But the merchants feel the project should be refunded, he added.

Education Takes Chunk of Utah Funds continued from page lb tions for higher education were set at $102,936,000 for the coming year by the 1976 Budget Session. This sum represents an increase of $14.6 million, or 16.5 percent above the adjusted level for 1975-7Included in the final appropriation total for 1976-7- 7 6. is $1,822,000 in last-minu- te additions to the amounts allocated for higher education. These additions made by an amendment to the general appropriations act in the final minutes before adjournment of the 1976 Budget Session served to bring the overall appropriation total for higher education close to the level recommended by the State Board of Regents. The Foundation report notes that no change will be made in general resident tuitions at Utahs public colleges and universities for next year. Increased tuitions were authorized, however, for nonresident students attending the University of Utah and Utah State University along with a substantial tuition hike for all medical school students. Even with these increases nonresident tuitions in Utah are relatively lower than in most other states. A recent study reveals that tuition and fee charges at Utah institutions of higher education are about average to those charged to resident students in the other Mountain States, but are considerably below the Mountain States average in the case of nonresident students.
